In this country, Christianity is viewed as a threat to Islam. Muslims are "forbidden" to take part in Christmas activities, as Christmas is considered a religious celebration. Among non-Muslims though, it is also celebrated culturally, such as exchanging gifts etc.
Holy moly, they need to split religion and government ASAP.
We wish we could, but when more than 60% of the citizens have their religion decided for the by the virtue of their race, it's bound to be a shitshow
I don't expect that to happen in my lifetime. 🥲
